Yes indeed! I remember a store near me having B-17 bomber on the original 800, with it's synthesised voices and that was a glimpse into the future. I'll gloss over the ethics of a game about bombing cities, sold to children, but it was a more innocent age I guess.

Well I never knew this. I guess the shop had an Atari 800 on the table and the game playing on the monitor and I put them together!
